Clockwork Wings & Dragon Scales

dance, Orchestral dance-core swell with chorused piano arps under breathy female and warm male vocals trading quick phrases, Verses float over airy strings and distant choirs; choruses bloom with distorted synth bass, big toms, and bright stabs, Middle section softens to solo piano and long reverb tails, then a final explosive full-band hit with stacked harmonies and a soaring top-line, female vocals, emotional, gentle, bright, orchestral, happy, steampunk

V4.5-ALL

[Verse 1]
(F) Lanterns spin in copper air
Gear-teeth glow in my wild hair
(M) I step through steam
Sparks in my claws
Blue glass skin
Silver flaws

(F) I hide my wings in velvet folds
Clock hearts hum
Tiny and old
(M) Your brass-bound boots tap time in place
My fire stutters at your face

[Pre-Chorus]
(F) Are you myth or misfire?
(M) Are you spell or engineer?
(F) Every cog inside me
(M) Starts turning when you're near (oh)

[Chorus]
(F) Clockwork wings and dragon scales
We collide
The distance fails
(M) Rust and rain and shining blue
All the strange I am finds you
(F) Turn the key inside my chest
(M) Hear it race
Refuse to rest
(F) Clockwork wings and dragon scales
(Both) First touch writes the fairytale

[Verse 2]
(M) I’m clumsy gold and cobalt light
Smoke in curls
Afraid of heights
(F) I’ve walked on rails above the town
Never dreamed of looking down

(M) You laugh
And all my armor slips
(F) You blush in sparks from metal ships
(M) “Can I hold your hand?” — my voice
(F) “Yes
” I say
Like I had no choice (hey)

[Pre-Chorus]
(M) Are you brass or blossom?
(F) Are you fate or sweet mistake?
(M) Every breath I’m taking
(F) Winds tighter ’round this ache

[Bridge]
(F) Spin me through the glowing fog
(M) Lift me past the iron bog
(F) I’ll fix every cracked rivet in your heart
(M) I’ll shield every fragile
Glittering part

(F) We were built from scrap and sky
(M) Sparks and scales that shouldn’t fly
(Both) But in this moment
Breathing bright
We fit just right
We fit just right (woah)

[Final Refrain]
[soft
Solo piano
Long reverb on vocals]
(F) Clockwork wings and dragon scales
Slow dance over silver rails
(M) If this is wrong
Let gears rebel
(Both) Let every dial ring like bells

(F) Turn the key
Don’t let it fade
(M) Let this wonder stay
Remade

[Last Hit]
[full-band crash back in]
(Both) Clockwork wings and dragon scales
Our first hello forever trails
Over steam
Through endless blue
Every beat says
“I choose you”
